Nicola Roberts - Beat my drum
I am confused.
Has this been a complete flop e.g that one week in the charts OR Is it still to be properly released? |

It's gonna have it's physical CD release next week but I can't really see that boosting sales that much!

I think the CD single release has been pushed forward by a week. Her label left far too long between the digital and physical releases, and they planned the majority of promo around the physical release, which partly explains the poor performance so far.
She's also struggled with lack of airplay - she's not in the top 100 airplay chart and she didn't make the Radio 1 playlist, which was a big blow. But she's got some good promo coming up (T4 On The Beach, Paul O'Grady, Loose Women, Daybreak etc) so she'll probably go back into the Top 40. She'll also have comparitively high physical sales, which will help. |

It's so awful. Marginally better than the abomination that is Swagger Jagger.

Such a misunderstood tune.It's fun and playful.It's not a masterpiece, but it's not rubbish either. The beat is amazing and the melody is really infectious. I just wish she could dance JUST A BIT to promote it.Not every artist can get a dance breakdown as special as Diplo's on the track

To answer the question, the single was not released to launch the album.IMO it was released to launch Nicola herself and make people pay attention.And it did just that.The people that loved it are now checking for her, the people that hated it are also checking for her and the people that found it mediocre can change their minds with the next one. Mission accomplished

I dont think it has been properly released yet, as others have said it has its physical release coming up soon and also the promotion really starts around that time. And the music channels are still calling it a future hit on the charts, even though it already charted.

I thought it was a good song, but I guess you would class it as a flop.
